Does it really matter if it's the runners, servers, management or all of them? The point is, this is not an isolated issue, it can't be tied to just one server due to the prevalence of these issues, and there has to be some kind of systemic issue that's causing this change. And having been in a similar situation, it seems completely reasonable that the server lied. Heck, we told ours multiple times to slow it down and he was right in there with the runners trying to force a speed dining situation. Ultimately, a guest should never have to request a well paced meal. The restaurant has failed if you have to go out of your way to try and correct them on such matter.
It's called throughput and no amount of manager table visits at a place like Ohana will change this practice. Although they charge premium prices it's not RPM, Swift & Son, Maple and Ash ( my absolute favorite) or Ruth's Chris. It's really too bad because we book Ohana every trip.
